Lianne mentioned to me yesterday that her brother and sister-in-law were going to do their annual Easter egg hunt next Sunday afternoon. I knew Easter was coming up next week, but for some reason when she brought up that egg hunt it just didn’t seem right. Didn’t we just do that Easter egg hunt a few months ago? Has it been a year already? I can remember as clearly as if it were yesterday hiding the hundreds of eggs all around my brother-in-law’s huge plot of land, and taking pictures of the kids as they rounded them up.
It made me pause and think, what the heck has happened over the 360 or so days since last Easter? What have I done with my life? It seems like every evening I can look back on the day and say to myself, “That was a productive, fun-filled day”, yet I can’t say the same thing about the past year. The days just flew by. I’m a young guy, but sometimes I feel like life is just screaming by. It’s kind of like a New Year’s epiphany. What’s really important to me? And what do I want to spend my time on? … Another year went by and I’m still not the musclebound, lean, ripped, studly dude that I want to be. 🙂
Well, I just reviewed my 2004 Year in Review, and I feel better now. We had a year of awesome times. I guess I need to just write more of them down … and lift weights more and eat right. 🙂 Ok, I think I can do that.
